These Linux-on-a-CD distributions are much more functional than a Red Hat boot CD, and typically come with every tool you can think of to help you fix your system. Partitioning a disk and restoring an OS from tape is a trivial task from one of these CD's.

Hi All - I have what I think is a failing SCSI disk. Of course, it is the root filesystem that is contained on that disk! I have a good 4mm backup of that disk. What I'd like to do is to boot from the Red Hat CD, format the disk with the appropriate partitions and then restore from tape to the new disk.
Will this work? What have I missed?
Thanks!
Cheers, Mike
